The Truth – Part I

When we in the Church of God think in terms of “The Truth”, we have in mind God’s “Way of Life.” This Way is discussed in God’s Word, “The Holy Bible”! While the Bible does speak of truth in the more conventional terminology; 1) whether or not facts given are true or false, and 2) the truth as an attribute of one’s character, we generally think in terms of the more frequent usage of the terminology used in the Bible, “the Truth” as it relates to the very Character of God and of His Way of Life.

Worship God

The Bible warns against false worship over and over again. Christians need to be certain that their worship is true and acceptable. Who we worship is very critical matter. Examples of worship in the lives of Abraham, David and Jesus Christ show the tremendous rewards of true worship. The Bible also speaks of grave and fateful warnings of a coming time of enforced false worship. We are to prepare now by making certain that our worship is true, and we are to teach and warn others of these things. Regardless of what we face, we must worship God.

Your Will Be Done

Christ taught us to pray: “Your Will Be Done, On Earth, As It Is In Heaven.” In order to ask God in a meaningful way that His will be done on earth – -and especially in our lives, we have to meet certain requirements. Otherwise, we cannot expect an answer to our prayers. These requirements include knowing and understanding God’s will, agreeing with it and desiring to do it, and, receiving God’s strength to do it. When we submit to God, He will see to it that His Will is done.

The Time of Jacob's Trouble

The modern descendants of the house of Israel will suffer devastating punishment and national captivity for their sins prior to the return of Jesus Christ. The Bible contains very specific conditions for blessings from God as well as His warning of severe punishment for disobedience. In spite of warnings from God, the history of Judah and Israel was that they ignored the message of the prophets who were sent to them. Along with preaching the gospel of the Kingdom of God, a warning of punishment is to be given in our generation–both to Israel and to the nations of this world.

Our Reward

The so-called Christian world is deceived and confused regarding God’s gift (that of eternal life which is offered independent of works), and our reward, which is dependent on works. It is important how we live based on what we know — how well we perform.

Our reward has to do with rulership. We will be able to beautify life — to guide and to help others to live a peaceful and happy life, in accordance with God’s way. Ruling others means, helping them to live God’s way of life. We must develop the desire to do so today.

In times of trials, we must look beyond the present and focus on the future, as to how we can serve others on a great scale.

The Promised Land

The really good news for each of us is that the struggle to keep sin out of our lives will have an end. In the Biblical account of Abraham and his descendants, we find both good and bad examples of those who sought to answer God’s calling. The lesson is one that transcends mere physical blessings of this life. The true promised land is the Kingdom of God–the end of our struggle and our final victory over sin.

Battle of the Mind

A battle is going on — at least, it should be going on — in the mind of every converted Christian. It is very important to realize that our human carnal mind was hostile toward God before our conversion, largely due to Satan’s influence. Even after conversion, Satan will try to continue to bombard us with his evil thoughts. We must therefore refuse to permit evil thoughts to settle in our minds and our hearts. Instead, we must replace them with right thoughts. God’s Word, Faith and the Understanding that God knows every thought that we might think, can help us to win the battle of our minds.
